Giveaway: Gussy Sews: CLOSED

Today I'm super excited to present a fun giveaway from one of my favorite new online pals, Maggie, of Gussy Sews! Maggie is a gorgeous, spunky, super-successful crafting queen, and any girl would be lucky to have a Gussy original in her closet. I actually have a few new adorable items on the way, and I couldn't be happier! (eReading in style, here I come!)

Here's a little from Maggie:

Hi there -- my name is Maggie Whitley and I'm the owner/designer of Gussy Sews. I spend equal time working on my blog and my shop. On my blog you'll find updates on my handmade shop, tips on how I left my day job 1 year ago to focus on my business, and different prompts/projects that help build a handmade community of inspiration & adventuring. Interested in what fills the "shelves" of my shop? All sorts of sassy, girly, colorful accessories: tote bags (3 different sizes), zipped pouches, eReader cases, headbands -- all sporting my signature ruffle!

My best friend is expecting a little baby girl in a few weeks so my choice would definitely have to be one of the lovely knitted baby blankets for her :) I'm liking the peachy colour, actually! So adorable!

I <3 Gussy! It would be so hard to choose, but I think I might put the gift certificate toward the Daniella Vacay Tote + Pouch. It's so summery and adorable! Thanks for the chance to win another wonderful giveaway. :)xoxo,jenny-lynnerxmo1@yahoo.com

I actually looked at her site when you featured her the other week. I just checked out all her items and I LOVE the signature ruffle! If I had one thing to choose I would pick the pretty in taupe tote/diaper bag. I love the yellow ruffle!!! Although I just found out my sister is having a little girl and would love to get the handmade blanket in bright green.

I am absolutely SWOONING over the Lola tote bag/diaper bag. I have yet to actually get a diaper bag for the wee one (due in two months!) and this would be the most perfect handmade accessory.

Also, I was lucky enough to meet "Gussy" at The Creative Connection last year and she is such a gem. I'm so thrilled she's had such success with her shop! She definitely deserves it, and is such an inspiration.

Oh my! I love the pattern combos! I found myself wishing I had a Kindle so I could get the Tweet in B&W case. I just love love love the Tangerine Dot clutch! And, the laptop bags and totes, sweet monkey dumplings--so fabulous!

A nice, big, warm hug to Maggie and you. I explored Gussy through you last week and was left warmed in my heart. Gussy's innocent designs and the hand picked colours is a sweet mix, like like a blend of oranges and apples!

I would love the ORANGE FLORAL ZIPPED POUCH from Gussy sews because it is nice to have something as beautiful as this pouch to lighten my mood on heavy days.

oooohhh everything is adorable. i think perhaps a diaper bag since we are trying to have a baby! you know to plan ahead! too cute! i love all the color combos and the fabrics, especially the one with the bird cages!

The Orange Floral Market Tote would be the first thing on my list - it's gorgeous! Ohhhhh, but wait, then I saw the Gussy Girl Heart purse. How could I not get that for my daughter?? Thanks for an amazing giveaway! I'm so excited :)
